Abstract

We examined selection effects for school mobility in a low-income, ethnically diverse sample in Miami. Overall, 38% of our sample moved schools at least once between Kindergarten to 5th grade. Low-income, Black students were more likely to move, and move more frequently compared to higher SES, Latino, and White peers.
